Marin County Airport or Gnoss Field (IATA: NOT, ICAO: KDVO, FAA LID: DVO), formerly O56, is a public airport located two miles (3.2 km) northeast of Novato, serving Marin County, California, USA. The airport covers 90 acres and has one runway and one helipad.[1] It is used mostly for general aviation.

Although most U.S. airports use the same three-letter location identifier for the FAA and IATA, Marin County Airport/Gnoss Field is assigned DVO by the FAA and NOT by the IATA (which assigned DVO to Francisco Bangoy International Airport in Davao City, Philippines). The airport's ICAO identifier is KDVO. [2] [3]

There is currently a plan to extend the length of Gnoss' sole runway by 1100' to a length of 4400'. The county of Marin is currently commissioning an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) and a joint Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) to explore the impact of such an extension.[4]
